The tournament featured a relaxed atmosphere seen as emblematic of the character of Mango: numerous players and commentators were intoxicated throughout the event, and many players chose to sandbag, playing secondaries or not competing at a serious level. Many of those top players were notably upset in the tournament, with Mango falling at 17th while using Captain Falcon and Leffen taking 13th while using Marth and Mewtwo, among others. Kalamazhu pulled off a very impressive run, beating top players such as Mango, SFAT, and Syrox on his way to a 2nd place finish. However, the carefree ambiance and vulgar commentary were the center of minor controversy, as the commentary was within earshot of players, which proved to be a distraction to their performance.[1] Earlier into the tournament, the venue did not allow players to bring their own water.[2] The issue was later rectified after Jmex spoke to the venue staff.[3]
